What’s in a Name?

In a nod to her Red Hills roots and love for the great outdoors, Desta (founder) turned to a quintessential game bird for the inspiration behind her brand. With countless hours afield among rolling hills, and early mornings marked by dew-dotted wiregrass, nothing quite portrays communication like the call of the Bobwhite Quail. The call of the Bobwhite is as majestic as the land is beautiful, and this iconic call is used by a group of quail – also called a “covey”- to communicate. Soft, elegant contact calls are used to stay in touch with each other while moving and foraging. More whistles mean strong habitat, bigger numbers, and ultimately a happy, healthy, and thriving covey. So, you see, effective communication isn’t just a necessity for great PR, it also works pretty well for our little friend, the Bobwhite Quail.

Hi, I’m Desta

I am a North Florida native and an accomplished communications professional with a demonstrated proficiency in public relations, creative content, campaign development, and cross-channel communications. With over a decade of experience in developing dynamic campaigns, I have catapulted brand visibility for an array of service, destination, hospitality, and consumer accounts.

From successfully hooking on-location broadcast episodes airing nationwide on The Outdoor Channel and World Fishing Network (viewed in more than 300 million households, all at no cost to my client); to landing substantial placements with national media including a five-page + feature in Southern Living magazine; to dynamic travel hits in Coastal Living, AFAR, Travel + Leisure, and countless others; to key earned media placements garnering national acclaim in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Garden & Gun; to impactful regional drive and flight market exposure; robust co-branded partnerships, and more — my love for media relations coupled with adept strategic planning skills have resulted in authentic capture of market shares and, most importantly, delivered impactful results for my clients.

Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working alongside Desta during my time as Beaufort Wine and Food Weekend, Inc. Executive Director. It was refreshing to work with her year after year during our annual event. She was always quick to respond to inquiries and requests, brought excellent exposure to the festival, and exuded absolute professionalism while handling teams of media attendees during event time. Her attention to detail and seamless coordination was greatly appreciated.

Beaufort Wine and Food benefitted greatly from the exposure she brought our account, giving us news-worthy coverage in publications that helped us secure grants and assisted to build and shape our brand.

Former Executive Director, Beaufort Wine & Food

My experience in working alongside Desta on the Visit Tallahassee account was an absolute pleasure. She jumped in to help the account during a transitional timeframe, and almost immediately began securing results. She promptly placed top-tier media appointments with key drive markets and produced impressive national and regional recognition for Visit Tallahassee.

Simply put, she is a joy to work with and is a go-getter with a proven track record for producing results.
